Explore Sa Coma, a hidden gem in the Balearic Islands! From its stunning beaches to charming shops, Sa Coma is the perfect destination for your next getaway.
S'Illot
S'Illot is situated on the east coast of Majorca, within the municipal district of Sant Lloren des Cardassar. The resort is approximately 65km (about 40miles) from Palma and the airport, with transfers taking anything up to 2 hours, depending on traffic conditions.
Quieter than neighbouring Sa Coma, S'Illot is a very pleasant beach resort, with just enough amenities for a relaxing holiday. The resort has a lovely promenade that runs right through it, lined with palm trees, and with a fair selection of bars, restaurants, cafes and shops.
The beach at S'Illot is very pretty, with soft sands and very calm, warm waters that lap gently. There are plenty of facilities such as sunbeds and parasols for hire, and a choice of watersports. You'll find pedaloes and banana boats, plus windsurfing and other activities.
The pace of life (including the nightlife) is laid back and relaxed - there are few lively bars here, with evening entertainment mainly provided by the hotels.
Once a small fishing village, S'Illot has evolved to cater for tourists, yet still retains that traditional Mallorcan feel, perhaps in part due to the well-controlled pace of development in the area. To this day, you can still see working fishing boats in and around the fishing port area near the beach at S'Illot. There are several green zones around the village, some of which are classed as areas of special environmental interest, notably, the Punta de n'Amer headland. For a change of scenery, consider visiting the neighbouring resorts of Cala Millor or Sa Coma, or perhaps a trip further afield to Palma, all served by buses from S'Illot, although the bus timetables on this part of the island can be unreliable! Although there once was a railway line in the east of Majorca, it no longer remains.
Sa Coma
Sa Coma is located on the east coast of Mallorca, just south of Cala Millor. Between the two holiday towns sits the unoccupied peninsula of Punta de n’Amer, which impresses with its wild nature. The beach in general
The beautiful sandy beach in Sa Coma is almost a kilometer long and quite wide. The water is clear, and relatively shallow. On days of easterly winds, waves may appear, and then lifeguards will keep an extra eye on the bathers.The beach has many sections with sunbeds and umbrellas, and of course there are also showers and restrooms at the beach. Behind the beach runs a wide promenade that is perfect for a stroll. The promenade stretches all the way down to Cala Moreya just south of the neighboring town of S’Illot. 4-star hotel palia sa coma playa hotel is right next to the beach, and with its many activities it is perfect for the family holiday. The sand is fine and although the beach is popular, there is usually plenty of room to play. The water is also child-friendly, however, the waves can become strong on days with wind from the east. Sa Coma offers many watersports activities, for example parasailing, jet skiing, banana boat and the classic water bikes. There are many restaurants, cafés and bars along the beachfront promenade. Several of them are owned and operated by the English, who have moved to Sa Coma. At one of the restaurants there is also a fine playground. Sa Coma is among the nicer tourist towns in Mallorca. It began to be built as a decidedly tourist town in the 1980s, and has grown ever since. The hotel standard is generally good and many hotels offer Mediterranean views. The city has a large selection of restaurants and cafes, especially along the seafront. In the streets behind the beach there are many tourist shops and local supermarkets. Sa Coma has many options for those who want a break from the beach life. An obvious activity is a trip around the city by either mini-train or horse-drawn carriage. A little more sweat on the forehead gives a hike on the protected peninsula of Punta de n’Amer, where the watchtower and the attached restaurant are located. Many families with children also visit the Safari Zoo on the outskirts of Sa Coma, where it is possible to see the wild animals from either your own car or the park’s safari bus.
